.. J. Reid (October 26): Aphids have been unusually abundant 
on cabbage and collards and have done considerable damage 
throughout the month of October near Charleston. The plants 
are being attacked both in the plant bed and after being trans- 
planted to the field. The worst injury was suffered duri 
the early part of the month, at which time the weather was very 
unfavorable for plant growth, as. well as for efficient use of 
control measures. Insect enemies, ladybird beetles, and the 
larvae of syrphus flies have done much to reduce the inf eSte.tion.
